Rated 3 out of 5

Not ready for prime time

I expected clearer pictures from a 400 mm lens and 13 megapixel resolution. Also the delay between pressing the shutter button and taking a picture is annoying. I returned the item. The concept is great but the photography portion needs improvement

My remarks...

Novel concept, although it’s neither a great camera nor a great optic. My primary objections are the limited (10 images) standalone memory and that the cell phone app necessarily requires two people working together in that, the app is a real-time view of what the observer is trying to focus on. In fact, whomever is holding the cellphone that’s tethered to Optik is capable of capturing an image without pressing down on the button that surmounts the ocular lens end of the Optik. The stability control is wanting inasmuch as the only crisp photos I was able to capture required either a supported position or a second person taking the photo via the iPhone app. I prefer not to bring my cell phone along when I’m birding and if I really have to have a cellphone with me, I definitely don’t want it to be a part of my outdoor experience. That said, if you and yours are looking for a reason to incorporate your cellphone with birding then Swarovski has just the right device for you.
